Configuring Network Integrity File Transfer Processors

This procedure assumes that the file parser processor has already been created and added to an action. You cannot configure the file parser processor unless it belongs to an action. See "Creating Network Integrity Processors" and "Adding Existing Processors to Network Integrity Actions" for more information.

To configure a file parser processor:

  1. On the Processor editor File Transfer tab, specify the input parameter source by doing one of the following:

    • To inherit input parameters from a predecessor processor in the sequence of processors in the action, specify the Context Parameter option.

      A predecessor processor sets file transfer context parameter values. For more information about file transfer context parameters, see "Configuring File Transfer Properties for Network Integrity File Transfer Processors".

    • To allow Network Integrity users to specify the input parameters in the UI, specify the Scan Parameter Group option and do one of the following:

      • To select an existing scan parameter group, click Select.

      • To create a new scan parameter group, click Scan Parameter Group.

        Design Studio builds the new scan parameter group using information from the Network Integrity SDK cartridge.

      See "About FTP Characteristics for Network Integrity File Transfer Processors" for more information about the input parameters for configuring file transfer processors from the Network Integrity UI.

  2. Configure the address parameter.

    See "Configuring the Address Parameter for Network Integrity File Transfer Processors" for more information.

  3. Configure the file transfer properties.

    See "Configuring File Transfer Properties for Network Integrity File Transfer Processors" for more information.

  4. Add context parameters.

    See "About Context Parameters for Network Integrity Processors" for more information.

  5. Save the processor.
